Jun Group is disseminating this video where Steve Nash falls down on the court and gets all kinds of broken. Then he’s put back together, all bionic-like, by a black Dr. Strangelove with ostentatious taste in shoes.

You probably heard it while you were chopping carrots or clipping your fingernails, and it probably made you drop your curlers to see what the heck it was. Maybe you were disappointed that it was just a Subway commercial advertising $5 foot-long subs or maybe you were impressed that the jingle was so entrancing or maybe you just wished that you had put a towel on before you startled your in-laws sitting on the couch.

Hot on the heels of its recent Foam City viral, Sony Electronics has launched a new marketing campaign for its DSLR cameras and camcorders. The multi-platform campaign, which features Sony cameras “tumbling” from a mountain top, will launch on print, TV, street billboards, subways, in-theater, a…

WASHINGTON (AdAge.com) — Sen. Hillary Clinton may have been outspent, but she wasn't outgunned, according to some Pennsylvania advertising executives.

AT&T;has created a multi-cultural print campaign using painted hands. Each image is very colorful, light, and artistic, in a cartoonish kind of way, making it eye catching and very fun to look at. My favorite is the one with the Great Wall of China gloves. Very creative.
